Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I work as a teacher. I work as a teacher, and sometimes I take a few minutes to perform the Dhuha prayer in front of the students to accustom them to this sunnah (recommended practice) and to make them love it. Is my action correct?
Answer:
No, by oath, it is not correct. The time is not the right time; the time is for the lesson. Do not take anything from it. Do not take anything from the class time. This attendance is for the government, which gives you a salary for it. Do not deprive them of anything from it. Do not say, "I will pray a nafilah (voluntary prayer)" or "I will recite the Qur'an." Your work is obligatory upon you. As for voluntary acts, there is another time for them. Yes. And teaching them is not done in this way. Teach them through words. Explain to them the Dhuha prayer and its virtue through words. There is a need for that. Yes.
